Affiliate Disclosure

    Last updated: January 2026

    Transparency and honesty are core values at igniteintelligence.co.nz. In compliance with advertising standards and consumer protection guidelines, this page outlines how we fund our operations and maintain our editorial integrity as an independent review platform for New Zealand betting sites.

    Affiliate Compensation

    igniteintelligence.co.nz participates in affiliate marketing programmes. This means that when you click on certain outbound links to online sportsbooks, casinos, or betting operators featured on our website and subsequently register or deposit funds, we may receive a commission payment from that operator at no additional cost to you.

    Editorial Independence and Objectivity

    Our commercial partnerships do not dictate, bias, or influence our editorial content, ratings, or recommendations. Our reviews are conducted independently by our team using standardised criteria, including licensing, security, market depth, payment speeds for Kiwi players, and customer support quality.

    We do not accept payment to provide positive reviews for subpar platforms. If an operator fails to meet our standards for safety, fairness, and player value, we will state this clearly, regardless of any potential commercial relationship.

    How to Identify Affiliate Links

    To ensure full transparency for our readers, you can identify commercial relationships on our site through the following indicators:

    Regulatory and Advertising Compliance

    We operate in accordance with New Zealand advertising standards and fair trading principles. Our commercial communications adhere to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) Advertising Standards Code, specifically the Guidance Note on Identification of Advertisements, ensuring that commercial content is clearly distinguishable from editorial commentary. We also adhere to the transparency principles set out by the Fair Trading Act 1986 regarding misleading or deceptive conduct.

    Reader Responsibility and Safer Gambling

    While we strive to keep all information on igniteintelligence.co.nz accurate and up to date as of 2026, betting terms, odds, and bonus conditions change frequently. It is your responsibility to verify all terms, conditions, and wagering requirements directly on the operator's website before creating an account or placing a bet.

    Online betting carries financial risk and should only ever be treated as entertainment. You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age specified by the operator) to register with an online betting site. If gambling is causing harm to you or someone you know, free and confidential support is available in New Zealand via the Gambling Helpline NZ at 0800 654 655 or by texting 8006.
